Windows Live Mail is a desktop application that gives you access to all of your email accounts in a single window. With this software, you can search for messages across. Mail (32-bit) icon not working in Control Panel Issue Mail (32-bit) icon in control panel lost its bitmap and is not active (clicking on the icon doesn't do anything).
We recently received a call where a user needed to create a new MAPI (Outlook) profile. They called because they did not see the Mail shortcut in their Control Panel.
It turned out that the user was using the 64-bit version of Windows Vista. When you are using a 64-bit OS (Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008) there are actually 2 Control Panels, one for 64-bit items and one for 32-bit items. Microsoft Office 2003/2007 is a 32-bit application; therefore it’s Control Panel applet will be in the 32-bit Control Panel, this is necessary because the 64-bit version of explorer.exe cannot open the 32-bit .dll files that are required for this application. For more information on this and other applications that may be affected see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/895561.
To access the 32-bit Control Panel you must open the classic view of Control Panel and click on the “View 32-bit Control Panel Items” link as seen below:
Once the 32-bit Control Panel opened the user could then access his email profiles by clicking the Mail link.
You can also directly open Mail Setup by running “c:WindowsSysWOW64control.exe mlcfg32.cpl”

I find myself often visiting the Mail control panel for people I'm helping who use Outlook.
However, it never, ever shows up in the start menu for anyones computer:
Is there some magic string I can type in to get that menu item? https://busterever872.weebly.com/acid-pro-for-mac-download.html. I've tried all the obvious ones:
But to no avail. Normally I just go the long way, but with Windows 8 and Metro I'm concerned I'm going to get very frustrated trying to talk users through it over the phone.

Don't bother this is not a problem of your system its due to the 64-bit version of Windows and you have the 32-bit version of Outlook. For appearing it in the start menu you have to install the 64-bit version on your system and then you will able to see the avirkavirk
Mail option when you type it in search. Here is the first link where i got notice to read it that what is the issue with it and where is mail icon? is another thread which helped me to find this. Read both article carefully and then try to install the 64-bit version of MS Office and check that the problem is resolved or not?I think add recycle bin to start menu article will help you to add mail in start menu. Another way in my mind to customize the start menu. For this right click on the taskbar and select the properties and then select the Start Menu tab and select the option for control panelDisplay as menu by default it is Display as link . This is a tweak to find it fast I don't know will it be able to pin it in the search option or not? Hope this will help you, best of luck.

There's a website that has some good information about this here:http://www.geekgirls.com/windowsxp_controlpanel.htm Find mac software serial numbers.
The methods mentioned work for Win7 as well as XP. Essentially, look in the Windows/system32 folder for any *.cpl files. These are the control panel items. Then you just call the one that you want.
For example, if you want to open the Screen Resolution:
I'm guessing there is a mail.cpl on your computer (mine doesn't have it)

I don't think it is part of the default start menu program entries. I always circumvent oddities of the start menu by letting users directly execute the startup command line through the execute dialog (best way to get there is to use the Windows+R keystroke as the 'Execute' menu item is disabled in some variants of the Start Menu). In the case of Mail (32-Bit) this would be
control mlcfg32.cpl
mlcfg32.cpl is located in your Office installation path, so typically %PROGRAMFILES%Microsoft OfficeOffice <Version> and this one is inserted into the system-wide %PATH% upon installation, so unless the %PATH% Download mac os 10.2 iso. is being messed with, it should work out of the box. If not, you still can navigate to the office folder and run it from there. As the control panel has become a real mess lately - nearly impossible to navigate anyone through on the phone - even navigating through the folders presents a more coherent user experience.

Right click on the Mail (32-bit) item in the Control Panel, then hit Create shortcut. That should place a shortcut on your desktop.
Next, rename the shortcut to be something you want without the pointless 'shortcut' ending.

Now, to get it into Start, right click on the shortcut on your desktop and choose Cut (or just press the Ctrl+X shortcut).
Then, go to Start and type in the search box
%appdata%MicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms and hit Enter. Once you're in that folder, you can right click somewhere empty and hit paste or use Ctrl+V.
Now, a) it will appear when you search whatever you titled the shortcut, and b) it will appear when you go to All Apps. If you want you can also pin it to Start by right clicking the shortcut in All Apps and choosing Pin to Start.

I thought I would share this, I know this is an old string. A client that I'm not the engineer for called and need help. They have thin-clients for their contractors to check email and use other office products and the like. I had to reset the profile to stop the explorer from crashing and restarting. The HR person then took over and tried to setup Outlook, but did not do it correctly. The profile would not open correctly due to an apparent typo. Unfortunately, the session is completely locked down. You can't even open the start menu. My solution ended up being to open the task manager and run outlook.exe /profiles from the 'run new task' option under files.
